Remember the bloody shoot outs outside an Italian pizzeria in Germany? These hits brought the mafia in public view almost two years ago in Germany. Today, according the Federal Crime (BKA), there are around 229 'Ndrangheta families living in Germany. They are involved in drug dealing, racketeering, gun running, money laundering, and even legal businesses. These mafia families had been mostly unnoticed until the six mob members were shot and killed by rivals outside a restaurant in the city of Duisburg in August 2007.
The report also said that there were about 900 people involved in the mafia activity in Germany. These mob members were also owners of hundreds of legal restaurants. They also have some control in the property market in eastern Germany.
Since the murders in August of 2007, prosecutions against the suspects did not materialize because of lack of evidence.
